阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项。
A
Children’s Books
My Winter City by James Gladstone
A kid, his dad and their dog happily brave a downfall to go sledding across town. The boy notes the “windows gone all steamy” on the bus, the “wilderness of footprints, crisscrossing, disappearing” on the sidewalks, the “light powder pillows” when they make snow angels. Through the illustrations(插图) of the book, little children can find each well-observed detail of wintertime city life.
40pp.$19.95. (Ages 4 to 8.)
Bear Is Awake! An Alphabet Story by Hannah E.Harrison
A “big bear” wakes up in the middle of winter, leaves her den and shows up at a “cozy cabin,” where a girl is annoyed, then inspired to take the bear into town to figure out how to help the creature get back to hibernation(冬眠). The final page has no words, just a proud look on the girl’s face: mission accomplished. The book lets even pre-readers follow the alphabetical story through the expressive illustrations.
40pp.$17.99.(Ages 3 to 6.)
I Am Polar Bear by J. Patrick Lewis.
The book captures the majesty of the polar bear. Lewis has the creature tell us what he’s called in different cultures, from the Inuit (“I am Nanuk”) to the Sami, who“refuse to speak my name for fear of offending me.” The ending shows the polar bear float on a shrinking bit of ice, “losing hold.”
32pp. $18.99.(Ages 4 to 8.)
Snowy Race by April Jones Prince.
A girl gets to ride on her dad’s giant snowplow in this delightful rhyming tale. They race through the heavy snow, but it’s not clear where they’re going until they arrive at the airport, where her mother is waiting. Prince’s (“What Do Wheels Do All Day ”) text is intriguingly spare, letting Davenier’s (“The First Thing My Mama Told Me”) soft lively wintertime scenes shine.
40pp. $18.99.(Ages 3 to 6.)
21. Which of the following books unfolds the winter city life
A. My Winter City. B. Bear Is Awake! An Alphabet Story.
C. I Am Polar Bear. D. Snow for Everyone.

B
There’s nothing more refreshing than finding a young musician who talks about her developing career without any artifice（欺骗） or anxiety. It’s simply a question of playing hard and persuading others that the journey is worth taking.
As the first saxophonist to reach the final of BBC Young Musician in 2016, Jess Gillam was pleased to find her schoolfriends watched and enjoyed her performance. Without her, they wouldn’t have heard a note and probably wouldn’t have known the competition existed.
When she first joined the Carnival Band, a small town band, at 7, she realised it was a meeting point for people from many different backgrounds. Saxophone in hand, she saw that there was a pathway to be followed that would take people on a journey together who otherwise might not find common cause, and who — without the thrill of music-making — couldn’t exploit（充分利用）their nature for music.
But here’s the bad news. Local authority funding fell away and there was no one to pick up the pieces. For the generations behind her, there’s none of that opportunity she had to develop a love for music. Perhaps that’s one of the reasons why she is so passionate about music education, which is to her a necessity.
“Music needs to be a given. It is part of education, but not an add-on.”
For anyone who gets tired of the head-scratching arguments about where music is going — and whether or not audiences are going to shrink — a musician like Jess Gillam is an energising inspiration. She mentions her excitement at performing with an orchestra which illustrates the richness of opportunity for talented young players. Its 15th anniversary concert this year is living proof of the magic that can be reminded when young players get together to express themselves with all the uninhibited（不受拘束的） enthusiasm of talented people who haven’t yet been beaten down by too much career advice, or over-eager agents anxious to change them in a particular way.
When talking about music education in schools, she is incredible that anyone could think that it shouldn’t be at the heart of the curriculum. She knows what it has done for her and hopes to pass it on.
24. What do we know about Jess Gillam
A. She created a chance for her friends to approach music.
B. She believed only a band could unite music lovers.
C. She considered music-making an inborn competence.
D. She took over after her band was financially challenged.
25. Which does the underlined word “given” in paragraph 5 mean
A. Must. B. Bonus. C. Gift. D. Chance.
26. What does Jess Gillam probably agree with
A. Further evidence is needed to support music education.
B. Music can only be individually appreciated.
C. Music allows young players to voice themselves freely.
D. Musicians are under the obligation to spread music.
27. Which can best describe Jess Gillam
A. Ambitious and generous. B. Warm-hearted and modest.
C. Sensitive and devoted. D. Responsible and inspiring.
C
Dror Angel, a marine ecologist seeks to fight climate change by purposely sinking waste wood to the sea floor, where carbon that the trees stored up while living can remain locked away for centuries. This initiative, led by Israeli company Rewind, is part of a growing trend in carbon capture technologies seeking to draw carbon out of the atmosphere.
Whereas some carbon capture schemes require expensive machines and complex chemistry, burying terrestrial biomass（地球生物量）at sea is extremely simple: All it takes are tugboats, barges, and woody waste from forestry and agriculture. The approach is favoured over other ocean-based carbon capture methods, such as growing and sinking seaweed. The advantage lies in the fact that the plant material is grown on land, reducing the risk of robbing the surrounding waters of nutrients. Additionally, the existing infrastructure（基础结构）for terrestrial biomass production makes it more practical at scale. And because woody plants are tough and unlikely to degrade（降解）, they can effectively store carbon.
In the Black Sea, Rewind has one of the world’s great carbon burial sites. The sea is much saltier at the bottom than at the top, so the two layers don’t mix much at all — one reason why very little oxygen makes it to the sea floor. And because the layers don’t mix, any greenhouse gases that are produced will be locked in the depths for hundreds or thousands of years.
However, critics raise concerns about potential drawbacks. The transportation of biomass on earth globally may not be environmentally practicable. And removing terrestrial biomass from land could steal soil nutrients over time. Additionally, as new uses for terrestrial biomass emerge, such as sustainable building materials or biochar(生物炭), the most environmentally friendly approach must be considered.
Dror Angel agrees that sinking terrestrial biomass has its limitations and challenges. But the urgency of carbon removal demands that every possible scheme be explored thoroughly, and he says, “I think every idea deserves $1 billion of support to test it out.”
28. What is the purpose of the Rewind’s project
A. To develop new marine ecosystems.
B. To explore unknown marine species.
C. To trap carbon at sea.
D. To store carbon for future use.
29.Which of the following advantages about the wooden-sinking method is not mentioned
A. A decreased impact on marine ecology.
B. A slim chance of breaking down.
C. Increased absorption of carbon.
D. Great practice on a large scale.
30. What can be inferred from Paragraph 4
A. The transportation of terrestrial biomass is harmless to the environment.
B. Carbon capture efforts need to be balanced with other environmental goals.
C. Terrestrial Biomass has no significant use other than carbon capture.
D. Burying terrestrial biomass is the best way to keep carbon.
31. What is the article's tone towards the initiative led by Dror Angel and Rewind
A. Skeptical. B. Objective. C. Ambiguous. D. Indifferent.
D
The clich（陈词滥调）of a knitter is a white-haired lady. But in the 1940s, young male Royal Air Force pilots used needles as they waited for their next mission. Wartime pilots crashed a lot and “lap crafts” like knitting, helped rebuild flexibility in wounded limbs while also helping to settle wounded minds.They were the cornerstone（基石）of early occupational therapy（治疗）.
Today, millions of people around the world employ these same techniques. “They are closely associated with our mental health,” says Janine Smith. Along with Deb McDonald, she co-owns Skein Sisters, a store in Sydney, that sells supplies for knitting and crocheting. “I know that if I haven’t knitted for a few days, I really miss it. It’s like meditation.”
Physiotherapist Betsan Corkhill and occupational therapist Jill Riley were part of a team from Cardiff University that, ten years ago, surveyed more than 3,500 knitters and found that the more frequently people knitted, the calmer and happier they felt.
In reality, it is a “Flow”, which is a concept first named by psychologist Mihaly Csikszentmihal as he wrote in his book, “The best moments in our lives are not the passive, receptive, relaxing times. The best moments usually occur if a person’s body or mind is stretched to its limits in a voluntary effort to accomplish something difficult and worthwhile.”
Shauna Richardson knows just how true this is.The artist spent 18 months in a state of flow when she crocheted（钩织）three seven-metre-long lions for the 2012 Cultural Olympiad. To complete the task, which required nearly 38 miles of wool, she says she had to “ zone everything out and sustain a state of mind driven by rhythm and process.”
But smaller projects will also get you there. Even a simple knitting or crochet pattern requires attentiveness to ensure that each stitch is made correctly. And if there’s not enough challenge in the straightforward, you can make additions, from colour changes to textured stitches to highly complicated patterns.
The Cardiff research team found that even though most of the people surveyed were employed, three-quarters of those who knitted three or more times a week felt significantly more able to organise their thoughts and forget their problems.
What’s the function of the first paragraph
A. To give a definition.
B. To introduce the topic.
C. To clarify a concept.
D. To prove a finding.
On which occasion will a person experience “Flow”
A. Playing computer games to one’s heart’s content.
B. Experiencing an aha moment all of a sudden.
C. Working on a technical challenge devotedly.
D. Being frequently distracted from the task.
What can you infer from the passage
A. Challenges in knitting are made to add excitement.
B. Shanna Richardson likes nothing better than facing challenges in crocheting.
C. Smaller projects won’t contribute much to experiencing “Flow”.
D. Frequent knitters feel more capable of handling their thoughts and challenges.
35. What is the best title of the text
A. Active Hands, Calm Minds.
B. Unique therapy, Effective healing.
C. Skillful techniques, Organized thoughts.
D. Simple knitting, Physical wellbeing.

（满分25分）
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Jenny was fourteen years old and always wore a bright smile. This may not seem that unusual except that she suffered from cerebral palsy（大脑性麻痹）, a condition that left her muscles stiff（僵硬的）. Because she had trouble speaking, it was this bright smile that reflected her true personality — a great kid. She used a walker（助行架）most of the time. A lot of times people didn’t speak to her. Why Who knows Maybe it was because she looked different and the rest of the students didn’t know how to approach her. Jenny usually broke the ice with people she met with a big “Hi”.
The assignment was to recite three stanzas（诗节）of the poem “Don’t Quit”. I only made the assignment worth ten points since I figured most of my students wouldn’t do it anyway. When I was in school and a teacher assigned a ten-point homework assignment, I would probably have blown it off myself. So I wasn’t expecting much from today’s teenagers either. Jenny was in the class, and I noticed a look on her face that was different from the normal bright smile. The look was one of worry. Don’t worry, Jenny, I thought to myself, it’s only ten points.
The day the assignment came due arrived and as I went through my roster（花名册） my expectations were met, as one by one each student failed to recite the poem. “Sorry, Mr. Krause,” was the standard reply. “It’s only worth ten points anyway...right ” Finally, in frustration and half kidding, I announced that the next person who didn’t recite the poem perfectly had to drop on the floor and give me ten push-ups. This was an old discipline technique from my days as a physical education teacher.
注意：1. 续写词数应为150个左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
To my surprise, Jenny was next.
But she crawled（爬）back up with her walker and continued the poem.

读后续写范文
Paragraph 1: To my surprise, Jenny was next. With the assistance of her walker, she stepped slowly to the front of the class, starting reciting carefully. It was obvious that she strained every nerve to form each word as clearly as possible. However, she was about to make it to the first stanza/verse when she made a mistake. Before I could say a word, she threw the walker without the slightest hesitation and did the push-up punishment. Never in my wildest dream had I expected that she would take my half-kidding seriously. I hurried to her side, gently suggesting, “That’s enough! You have already done a far better job!”
Paragraph 2: But she crawled(爬) back up with her walker and continued the poem. With all of us staring in astonishment, she picked up where she stopped, and managed to finish all the remaining lines. At the sight of her bow as an end, the whole class sunk into a brief silence. Then came the thunderous applause. Jenny walked back to her seat, sweating but on the top of the world. When asked about why she put so much effort to do this, Jenny said that she just wanted to do what normal people did. Jenny gained ten points with great efforts. But to her, it was worth a whole lot more than the points. It also meant the love and respect from others.

C.推理判断题。根据第四段最后两句“The best moments in our lives are not the passive,receptive,relaxing times.The best moments usually occur if a person’s body or mind is stretched to its limits in a voluntary effort to accomplish something difficult and worthwhile.”（我们生命中最美好的时刻并不是那些被动、接受、放松的时刻。最美好的时刻通常发生在一个人的身心在自愿努力达成某个困难且有价值的目标过程中达到极限时。）可知C选项的全身心应对技术挑战与原文意义吻合。
D.细节理解题。根据最后一段：每周编织三四次的人思维更清晰并更乐观。由此可知，经常编织的人更有能力处理自己的思想和所面临的挑战。
A.主旨大意题。原文主要讲述编织对人心理健康的积极影响，A选项的Active hands 指编织，Calm minds指人的平静心理，与原文大意最为吻合。
七选五
E.
【解析】 本题考察考生理解篇章布局，建立段内和段际关系的能力，同时考察考生理解段内衔接关系的能力。
本题为段首语，一般为概括性较强的主题句。此外，它还要承接上文。上一段中作者提到“‘sky blue’这种永恒的色彩在家里非常适用，无论是用来提亮走廊，还是给卧室增添一份宁静感”。因此F选项提到“于是毫不意外，它近期受到了极大的欢迎”，作为对上一段的总结，表明这种流行是情理之中的事情。此外，本题后提到“从墙漆到家具、靠垫和床上用品, 人们正在全面接受这一色彩趋势”。作者通过“From wall paint to furniture, cushions, and bedding”这一列举，强调了人们是如何在日常生活中全面接受这种色彩趋势的。干扰项C 选项中的building material 的英语解释可以是 "any material used in the construction of buildings or structures, such as wood, stone, brick, concrete, glass, metal, etc." 这意味着建筑材料是用于建造建筑或结构的任何材料，例如木材、石头、砖块、混凝土、玻璃、金属等。而选项后的Furniture（家具）、Cushion（垫子）和Bedding（寝具）并不属于Building Materials（建筑材料）。故不能选C。
F.
【解析】 本题考察考生理解段内衔接关系的能力。
本题位于段尾，前句John Lewis提到在线搜索“sky blue”的数量大幅上升，蓝色家具证明是受欢迎的购买选择。 选项C提到John Lewis本季推出了一系列蓝色产品, 与前句构成隐性的因果关系。此外，选项C的代词He指代上句中John Lewis。
B.
【解析】 本题考察考生理解段内衔接关系的能力。
本题位于段中，且以逗号结尾，因此，此处必须选择一个半句。同时，还要考虑与后半句的逻辑衔接。由后半句的but可以判断出38句与后半句的意思形成明显的转折关系，既适合现代装饰风格，也能与传统风格相融合。此外，选项B的代词it 指代上一句的Blue。
A.
【解析】 本题考察考生理解段内衔接关系的能力。
本题位于段中，前一句提到蓝色与自然的联系，它用在走廊里效果也很好，能巧妙地将户外与室内空间连接起来，后半句提到friendly，因此，选项A提到蓝色是欢迎客人的理想选择，是对蓝色在走廊里应用的进一步解释和补充。
D.
【解析】 本题考察考生理解篇章布局和段内衔接关系的能力。
本题位于段中，根据该段结构可知，该段介绍了蓝色可以应用在家里的不同区域，如走廊，起居室，厨房以及浴室。因此推断40题应该是蓝色应用于家里的某一个区域。此外，后一句中的代词they可知，40题必须有一个复数的可数名词，并且该名词可以减低心率和血压。因此选项E “此外，浅色调在卧室中尤其有效”最合适。
完形填空
【文章大意】本文为记叙文。介绍了少女Norwood 在车祸中勇救朋友的故事。
41.A. screams
【解析】车内原本欢声笑语，但突然另一辆车在十字路口撞在了他们的车上，导致他们的黑车冲入附近的院子。这种紧急情况通常会使人尖叫，因此选择A项“screams”（尖叫）。B. jokes（玩笑）；C. songs（歌曲）；D. regrets（后悔）。
42.C. crashed
【解析】文中提到另一辆车与他们的车发生了碰撞，导致他们的黑车冲入附近的院子。因此选择C项“crashed”（撞击）。A. changed（改变）；B. faded（褪色）；D. dived（跳水）。
43.D. blow up
【解析】句中描述了车辆发生撞击后的情况，车内的烟雾滚滚涌出，旁观者大喊“车要爆炸了”。动词短语blow up译为“爆炸”。break up（分手，解散）; pull up（停下）; start up（开始，创办）。
44.A. jamming
【解析】句子中提到撞击使Norwood的驾驶侧车门凹陷，导致车门打不开。 “jam” 当动词时，译为 “卡住”，它可以表示物体因为某种原因不能移动或打开。选项C. locking，意思是“锁上”，虽然它确实与门的关闭状态有关，但句子中并没有提到车门是被锁上的，而是被撞击导致无法打开。 securing （确保）; twisting （扭曲）;都与句意不符。（注 ：句子“cave” 为动词， “cave in” 塌陷，使下陷。 e.g. The heavy snow caused the roof of the house to cave in. 大雪导致房子的屋顶向内坍塌。）
45.B. Shaken
【解析】文中提到其他方面还好, 并且她和她的两个朋友一起从窗户逃了出去，可知她没有受伤，只是被吓到了Shaken（震惊的），下句提到她通过窗户逃了出去，故不是静止不动，不能选frozen（呆住的）。其他选项Broken （破坏的，受伤的）; Frozen（呆住的）; Beaten（被打败的）与句意不符。
46.B. free
【解析】文中描述她的两个朋友设法自救逃了出来，因此应该选择表示“使自由，使解脱”的动词free。其他选项test（测试）；cure（治愈）；help （帮助）都与句意不符。（注: free v. e.g. She struggled to free herself。她挣扎着以求脱身。）
47.C. realized
【解析】文中描述她走到一半，意识到Simmons不见了。因此选项C“realized”符合语境。其他选项的意思与句子内容不符，A. understood（理解）；B.mentioned（提到）；D. assessed（评估）都不符合句意。
48.D. unconscious
【解析】根据后文描述，她发现Simmons 在后座上，没有生命迹象，所以推断她处于无意识状态，选项D. unconscious符合语境。而选项A. uncomfortable（不舒服的）；选项B. unsettled（不安定的）；选项C. uncontrollable（无法控制的）都不符合文意。
49. A. threw
【解析】句子描述的是她猛地打开车门，将Simmons 拖出几英尺远, 并来到安全的地方，根据语境，这里需要一个表达“猛地”或“用力”的动词。选项A “threw”译为“猛地打开”，符合语境。而选项slid（滑动）；swung (摆动)；clicked（点击）都不符合语境。
50. C. sign
【解析】根据后文描述，Norwood开始实施心肺复苏术（CPR），可知Simmons 没有任何生命迹象，因此这里需要表示“迹象”或“信号”的名词，而选项C中的sign正是这个意思。其他选项importance（重要性）；value（价值）；length（长度）都不符合句意。
51. B. desperately
【解析】句中描述Norwood在对朋友进行心肺复苏时，用力按压Simmons的胸部，并拼命地向朋友口中吹气，希望能救活她。选项B. desperately 译为“拼命的” 符合题意。 A. gradually （逐渐地）；C. approximately （大约地）；D. originally （最初地）都不符合语境。
52. C. response
【解析】前句提到心肺复苏（CPR）的两个关键步骤：胸部按压和口对口呼吸。这两个动作的目的是为了刺激心脏并帮助肺部进行氧气交换，以期待患者能够恢复自主呼吸和心跳。然而，紧接着的句子“No 52 .”表明Norwood最初的努力没有得到预期的回应。这里的“No 52 .”指的是Simmons没有任何生命的迹象，即没有恢复自主呼吸或心跳。 最后，“after the 30th compression, Simmons began coughing” 说明在经过一段时间的心肺复苏后，Simmons的状况出现了改善。她开始咳嗽，这通常意味着肺部开始有了自主反应，是心肺复苏起效的标志。 句子中提到了“No response”，表示没有反应，因此选项C. response（反应）符合语境。gratitude（感激）；concern（担忧）；equipment（设备）都不符合语境。
53. D. worked
【解析】根据前文描述，Simmons开始咳嗽，说明CPR（心肺复苏）起作用了，因此选项D worked（起作用）符合语境。其他选项failed（失败）；started（开始）；returned（返回）都不符合句意。
54. B. rushed
【解析】句子中提到“救护车很快赶到，把Simmons送往医院”，因此需要一个表示“迅速送往”的动词。选项B中的rushed意为“迅速送往”，符合句意。而选项A. guided（引导）；选项C. admitted (承认)；选项D. told (告诉)，都与句意不符。
55. A. surprised
【解析】根据后文“She will always help any way she can.”可知，Simmons表示Norwood总是尽力帮忙，因此她并没有感到惊讶。所以选项A surprised（惊讶的）是正确答案。B项 “感到宽慰的”；C项“感到沮丧的”；D项“感到失望的”与语境不符。
语法填空
56.fifth 考察序数词。译为“第五次载人航天任务”。
57.involving 考察非谓语动词。involving China’s first civilian astronaut作the fifth crewed mission的后置定语。
58.for 考察固定短语。for the first time译为“第一次”。
59.the 考察冠词。空后为可数名词单数news conference，因此空处需要冠词起限制作用，根据news conference后的held in Beijing可知，此处为特指，故填the。
60.why 考察表语从句引导词。根据句意“我们严格遵守运动和饮食计划。这就是为什么我们的身体和精神状况非常好的原因”可知，此处考察固定句式“This is why…”，故填why。
61.exceptionally 考察副词。分析句子结构可知，空处需用副词修饰形容词good，故填exceptionally。
62. responsibilities 考察名词复数。分析句子结构可知，此处应为名词短语做宾语从句的主语，空处需要填名词，空后的were表明此处应为名词复数，故填responsibilities。
63.to enter 考察非谓语动词。序数词the first 修饰名词civilian astronaut，后面应使用动词不定式作后置定语，故填to enter。
64.scientific 考察形容词。空处在句中作定语，修饰名词research，应用形容词，故填scientific。
65.have advanced/have been advancing 考察时态。分析句子成分可知，空处为句子谓语，又结合时间状语Since 2003，可知，此处可用现在完成时have advanced，若强调动作延续感，也可用现在完成进行时have been advancing。

Text 10 (第20题为总结题)
I’ll tell all of you a short history about these products in my shop today. (18) But first I want to express how glad I am that all of you here are enjoying yourselves.
So, as you know, what you’re eating is an Italian type of ice cream. My grandparents worked on a farm in Italy and made this traditional type of ice cream. But that was decades before my family moved here to the United Kingdom and well before I was born here. (19) Anyway, you might notice this ice cream tastes different from others you’ve tried. That’s because my Italian ice cream is hand-made. So it is softer and creamier.
But where did ice cream come from in the first place It certainly wasn’t from Italy, nor was it invented here in the United Kingdom. According to ancient stories, horse riders across China used to keep milk in their bags while riding. Due to the extremely cold temperatures, the milk would freeze, and the horse’s jumping turned the frozen milk into ice cream! That’s all about the story. Now enjoy yourselves.
